Review: Revolver (2005)

Director: Guy Ritchie
Starring: Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, Vincent Pastore, André Benjamin

Very stylish movie about a con man who gets out of prison and gets involved in a strange game.

I have to confess. I bought this movie because of two reasons: 1. Jason Statham 2. Guy Ritchie 3. Ray Liotta (ok, three reasons) and then there was this guy from The Sopranos (four reasons)

Revolver has great humour and great characters. Liotta's character got the most laughs out of me and not only because he had a wicked tan. At one point of the movie I was completely lost. What the hell was happening?! But then it all started to come clearer. I like movies that can confuse me for a while like that. And the movie was very well directed (and Statham got his shirt off once again..) and the colour scenery was stylish.

Stars: ****

Oh, btw, I wasn't so convinced at first that André from Outkast could act but he was a positive surprise.
